ViRobot Internet Security 2011

The ever-increasing viruses and other malware types are continuously threatening the system security when navigating on the Internet. ViRobot Internet Security comes with a suite of tools that work together to protect your computer and prevent its infection.

Based on two scan engines (ViRobot S3 and BitDefender), the application provides you with real-time monitoring in order to detect suspicious behavior or infected files. Besides its anti-phishing component (which blocks phishing attempts and the access to untrustworthy websites), it comes with a private firewall tool that adds an extra security layer to your system.

The main interface is well-organized and clean, displaying information regarding the current security level, the last scan date and the engine version. The 'Quick Scan' option allows the software to verify the boot section and executable processes in order to detect potentially unwanted programs and rootkits, while the custom scan enables you to choose the files and folders to check.

The firewall component is designed to protect the system against network viruses and hacking attacks. The application comes with network monitoring options to help you detect suspicious activity. It includes a user account management tool and a 'File Wipe' feature, designed to ensure private data protection.

System optimization options are also available. You can easily clean unnecessary files, registry entries, ActiveX components or startup programs to improve the overall system performance and its booting time. Memory optimization, scan scheduling, messenger protection (MSN and DAUM Messenger), autorun deactivation and PC usage control are other options that this application provides you with.

Although it may take a while to configure it, ViRobot Internet Security is capable of detecting threats, protect your computer and ensure your online privacy. Its second engine is designed to increase detection level, while maintaining resource usage.
